2022 Rawlings Gold Glove Award Winner – First Base – AL: Vladimir Guerrero Jr. #RawlingsGoldGloveAwards pic.twitter.com/0KKZnTIRqQ — Rawlings Baseball (@RawlingsSports) November 1, 2022 The Gold Glove is awarded annually by equipment manufacturer Rawlings and MLB to the top defensive player at each position in each league. Guerrero completed his third season at first base after starting his career as a third baseman. As TSN Blue Jays reporter Scott Mitchell notes, Guerrero has made significant strides since taking over. He is also the first player in Blue Jays history to win a Gold Glove at first base and the only Jay to receive the award in 2022. At the plate, Guerrero finished with a .274/.339/.480 slash to go along with 32 home runs and 97 RBI.
